Fuck him. Although does this mean that King Kong Brady was also banned? I mean, it would make sense. Interesting. Interesting indeed. Are you insinuating that KKB is a sock created by DC so the poster can converse back and forth with an alternate personality - not to agree - but to disagree? I 100% believe that, but who is the sock and who is the, I dunno, puppet master?

This is a common misconception I think. Nobody 'took the bait.' Everybody who talks to him knows what they're getting into. I don't necessarily think that's true - note that I'm not talking about you or other guys who were clearly having fun with him but rather certain posters who legitimately seemed devoted to "proving him wrong". Think schlacko from the old boards, or a few others here. Or the Marvel dudes who would regard him as their arch nemesis. Some of them really seemed quite crazed and followed him around trying to convince anyone who'd listen that he's a troll (something most of all already knew). Yet they'd still get worked up whenever he'd post a 1/10 review of the latest Marvel comic book movie. Good point. There are a fair number of people that would really get pulled into his world. Schlacko was a maniac in his own right. He started swearing at me when I said I wasn't as into hockey as I used to be.

No, but they're essentially the same person, two sides of the same coin if you will, so if the admins banned one, kinda makes sense to ban the other.

Here’s my opinion for what it’s worth. He was never offensive really, at least not to me, but Jesus Christ there’s only so many times and so many ways that he can make the same argument that it got old fast for me, especially when the Brady shit popped up in an unrelated thread. “I ate at Applebee’s last night and ordered the riblets, but they gave me 16 of them instead of 18. They cheated me out of two riblets much like Shady Brady cheated by having the footballs deflated.” Everybody here has their thing, but everybody else here intersperses actual valuable conversation amongst their thing. What did DC Fan truly add beyond the Patriots shit? It got so not entertaining to me that it made me defend the Patriots, and I fucking hate the Patriots! Anyway, at the end of the day this isn’t a growing community so we need the bodies. I hope his ban is not permanent but long enough to give us a break from him. Ideally he’ll lighten up a bit upon return but he’s fucking Rain Man with the Patriots, I don’t think he’ll ever really change - it’s what defines him. Couldn't agree more - more posters the better. Looks like the YankeesFan guy and his Gary Sheffield love hit the bricks just like NJCardFan - and Marco been gone since Halloween. That Yankees guy was trying to troll but he had no experience with it and had no idea what he was doing. He'll probably be back, maybe with a little less sand in his vagina. Marco comes and goes. He'll be back, and right away he'll post his same "what TV shows are you watching right now" and then chastise someone for saying they're watching Game of Thrones when it's not a current show. Like sands in the hour glass....

I always kinda thought that, but I think the inference here is that they were both one joke trolls that spammed the board with the same sort of garbage over and over. That's what I thought it meant at least.

I don't really care for him and his single minded shtick. It wore really thin for me a long time ago, and is only really funny every once in a while when I see some new post and think 'Jeez he's actually still doing this shit?' If nothing else, the dude commits to a bit.
But as much as I won't really miss his act, I don't want anyone banned. If there is anyone I don't want to converse with, I choose not to. That's pretty much why I only look at and post on the sports and horror boards, and even so you can't avoid dealing with some really unseemly comments and arguments.
DC was always annoying, but never abusive as far as I could tell. As stupid as his bit was I don't see how it's hurting anyone. There are certainly worse and more objectionable people elsewhere on this site and if I can deal with and ignore them I can certainly live with DC, and I don't want to call for anyone to be banned.

He'll be reborn on these boards again like a Phoenix rising.... wait that's a Marvel character..... like a whatever DC character is reborn.

I voted yes. When he's not grinding his axe, he CAN make decent points. That what can be frustrating. We get it, you don't like that team from Massachusetts. Move on and join the rest of us in the logical world.

Of course he should be allowed to post here, I believe it's still a free country and all that.
There does seem to be a more authoritarian vibe to this place than there used to be, which is making it less fun to visit. Most of the people that hang here are lapdogs, so it's probably not a big deal for them, but for those of us with open and free thinking minds, that could be a problem.
Please allow DC-fan to continue posting here.

Not when he takes one of my threads and dumps it in Brady shit. Or the other guy as well.

Yeah, sure. Dude never bothered me any.
Dude's just a shit stirrer and people just need to stop taking the bait when he leaves it out for them.

Sure, but the real problem is that he and the other bozo would interject their shit and then take over every single thread by going back and forth for days with the same idiocy. Good threads would basically end once they got involved.

Maybe it's because I'm used to dealing with that kind of shit, having spent the last two years stuck on filmboards, but I don't get why people can't just fight through that shit and work to get the threads that get derailed back on track.

I hear ya. I had an easier time with it on the old boards because you could nest the threads and when two people started going back and forth, you could simply sidestep it. Here, the interface is different and it just becomes tedious when the two of them start their cut and paste attack. Maybe I'm just becoming crotchety as I'm 40 now but people who troll for the sake of amusing themselves are one of the reasons why the internet sucks. I deal with assholes and bull-headed cretins in the real world, I just come here to bullshit about sports, movies and assorted tall tales.

anthonyrocks gets his ban lifted after like 2 days (which is great, of course) but DC Fan gets a permanent ban for... what? Saying “Shady Brady” one too many times? Calling Iron Man a terrorist? Calling Peyton Manning a “sex offender”? (no, wait, that was budadam)
I don’t like it. Ban people who are genuinely abusive and/or who dox other members. Not Hooters enthusiasts who engage in harmless, albeit relentless, trolling. Let him come back!

How great would it be though if he came back, apologized, admitted he was trolling for the sake of trolling, and then engaged in new and engaging sports debate about things he actually believes? ... Sometimes I say crazy things.

Too bad his parents aren’t best friends with Robert Kraft who can persuade the Admins to reduce his sentence.

If you don't like him - just put him on ignore. Was my first. Felt spectacular.

It was a conspiracy! Kraft was bitter over the Patriots not making the Super Bowl and he wanted to stop DC Fan from winning the pick em!
